BEST BAR NONE: Spinning funky music on Naeba's Snodeck

[Hachiko]

Niigata prefecture is known for becoming a haven for people in search of snow and fun. Here's an article on a bar owned by gaijin citizens:

Let me say right up front that I don't much care for snow. While Tokyo constantly disappoints by failing to deliver a white Christmas, that's about as far as my interest goes. And though I have enjoyed the thrills and spills of skiing a few times (before the advent of the snowboard, I admit), the experience was hardly enough to hook me. So believe me when I tell you that the only thing that lured me up to spend New Year's in Naeba, Niigata Prefecture, was the promise of finding a good bar.

A skier's oasis, Snodeck (above) boasts pizza and atmosphere to rival any bar. Owners Lorne and Kylie welcome everyone from Tokyo city slickers to four-footed locals.
